A long time ago, Gu Mingxiu had thought about what the relationship between her and Shen Huai was, and also thought about what Shen Huai meant to her and what her purpose was..... Lay out quietly by her side. Every time Gu Mingxiu thinks about this question, he will think of many, many things about his previous life, and then suppress the uneasiness in his heart little by little.

Before that answer came out, Gu Mingxiu thought about many factors, and also thought of many reasons, and eliminated those reasons one by one. In her mind, even if it's just for a moment..... She had never thought that she and Shen Huai would have other possibilities before.

And.... Shen Huai likes her.

"I came to bother, just to show my gratitude to His Highness. If nothing else—"

"Thanks? Indicate? Mingxiu girl, did this king say it a long time ago, such a verbal thank you is too light. ”

"My grandfather's promise is the promise of the General's Mansion, of course, if His Highness has any orders that I need to complete, I will naturally not shirk, I will die without regrets, and I will never break my word."

"That king is really—thank you!"

The moody young man crossed his arms and smiled coldly, but there was no smile in his eyes. There was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, Qing Yue was full of sarcasm, and there was a faint hint of suppressed anger that was fleeting.

That was the dangerous, fierce and unkind side that Shen Huai had not shown in front of her for a long time.

Gu Mingxiu lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, and the emotions on his face did not collapse in half a minute: "His Royal Highness King Xiao said that he laughed, the past grace of the General's Mansion has been measured, but if there are any trivial matters in the future, my grandfather can solve it by himself, before I have asked His Highness for help, I hope His Highness can ....." She paused, her tone was light, without any emotion, "Don't interfere again." ”

Shen Huai's eyes were slightly dark, and he looked at Gu Mingxiu, who had never looked at him, and then curled his lips and laughed casually: "The meaning of the Mingxiu girl, this king understands." Jin Yiwei is busy with official business, and this king may not have any good intentions to take care of other people's affairs-" His words were lazy, and he casually lowered his voice, and said in a low voice, "It's just that you are different from others." Gu Mingxiu. ”

The last three words carry a different kind of emotion.

Gu Mingxiu didn't move, and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness King Xiao, you have left me a choice-"

"What? This king has helped you so much, solved so many troubles for you, and even personally accompanied you to find the miracle doctor of Narauszi. This king is a heinous sinner in the eyes of others, but in your eyes, he should not be so bad, and now he is not the same evil person with ulterior motives as you think in your heart..."

Shen Huai inadvertently cut off Gu Mingxiu's words.

A piano fight had just ended downstairs, and there was still a fierce piano fight in the air, and the faint tail note slowly dissipated in the air, winding into the sky and disappearing. The cheering crowd erupted in applause below, and Red Sleeves gave the winner a wooden plaque with a laugh and a loud announcement of the winner.

Caressing his fingertips over the cold and silent railing, the young man in Xuanyi withdrew his gaze from downstairs and casually landed on the purple-clothed girl within ten paces of him in the room. He straightened up, took a step with long legs, walked leisurely and comfortably towards the girl in purple, and said slowly: "This king has done so much for you..... But now you don't even dare to look at this king and speak? He stood still in front of the girl in purple within three steps, crossed his arms and smiled lightly, "Or is this ground as good as this king, huh?" ”

As the young man walked, his cloak fluttered gently behind him, and the wind gently stirred the skirt of the girl in purple, and the pale skirt fluttered at her feet, like a stream flowing slowly in a river, soft and beautiful.

The girl in purple had only reached the young man's chest, and she looked very well-behaved without saying a word. The long inky hair slid down the girl's shoulders, and the tassels were soft and soft in the hair, like a flowing mountain spring. It makes people easily think of Gu Mingxiu's pupils, clean and dark eyes, full of agility.

From a distance, it looks like a girl leaning on the arms of a tall teenager, they all bow their heads, although they can't see the girl's expression clearly, but from the young man's slightly hooked lips and smiling expression, it seems that a little bit of the girl's shyness can be glimpsed. It's as if you've annoyed your sweetheart and you're whispering to each other.。

Shen Huai raised his hand, his fingers hanging on the top of Gu Mingxiu's head, and then moved down with her long hair that had slipped down, and finally stopped at her shoulder. The young man's slender finger bones flexed slightly, and he picked out a strand of Gu Ming's long black and soft hair: "Heh, let's still say-"

Before he could finish speaking, the little girl in front of him suddenly took a step back, calmly and calmly pulling the distance between the two people apart. Shen Huai's face was cold, with a lazy smile on his lips, and his expression did not change in the slightest. His posture remained still, just his eyes drooping, and he lazily watched the long strands of hair run through his fingertips and scatter in the air.

Gu Mingxiu, who took a step back, paused, and then raised his head to look at Shen Huai.

The purple-clothed girl's eyes were clean, still clear and cold. She looked at Shen Huai calmly and detachedly, and bowed slightly, "What His Highness said is true." At the beginning, I thought too much about it and mistakenly thought that His Highness had bad intentions, so I took many precautions and brought a lot of trouble to His Highness. ”

With a low sneer, Shen Huai looked at her condescendingly, and did not call Gu Mingxiu to get up: "Apologies? Do you know that the person who offended this king can't even find the corpse at this moment. Turning his eyes away, he added, "It's just that you don't need to make amends, it's indeed right to guard against this king, this king is inherently-" He curled his lips and smiled lazily, his voice was stubborn and seductive, "Heart-heart-no-track-"

Seeing that the girl's eyes were still clean and clean, without the slightest ripple, Shen Huai brushed off his cloak and turned around lazily and said, "Don't wait for the future, this king wants to ask for this favor from your general's mansion now." ”

Gu Mingxiu said: "Your Highness, please speak." ”

His Royal Highness King Xiao, who was holding his arms, stopped and looked at her stubbornly and indifferently: "This king's mansion has been cold for a long time, and it is a little unpleasant. Now that there is a shortage of Princess Xiao in this palace, I will ask the general's mansion to ask the embroidery girl to come to my Xiao Palace-"

"His Royal Highness King Xiao." Gu Mingxiu opened his mouth lightly, and his voice was cold and calm to cut off Shen Huai's words.

She raised her head, met Shen Huai's cold gaze, and said lightly: "If you want the General's Mansion to do something for His Highness, as long as it does not go against His Majesty's wishes, then no matter what the General's Mansion will do." But......" she paused, earnestly and indifferently, "this one thing is absolutely impossible. ”

After that, Gu Mingxiu blessed his body, and said lightly: "Your Highness, you gave Mingxiu a choice when you left, and you didn't interfere with Mingxiu in any case when Mingxiu came back, Mingxiu is very grateful." The wind swept the light skirt of the girl in purple, her long hair fluttered in the wind, and her eyes were peaceful, "When I came back, it was already time to make a choice, and at this moment, I thought of Your Highness.... It should be very clear. ”

"So please also.... Your Highness, don't embarrass me again. The girl in purple bowed dignified and seriously to the silent young man in Xuanyi, with a little helplessness and guilt on her face, "At this point, I have nothing more to say." Your Highness, please...."She paused, "cherished." ”

After that, Gu Mingxiu saluted again, and said softly: "Mingxiu retires." ”

The girl in purple got up and left, her skirt and shawl dragged into waves in the wind. Her steps were light and steady, and she left Shen Huai's sight step by step, just like when she came, without the slightest panic, without the slightest nervousness, not fast or slow, as if everything had never been put in her heart.

Shen Huai was the only one left in the house.

The smile on his face is arrogant and indifferent, and he can't show any sincerity. Shen Huai took a few steps back, pushed the half-covered window open, and sat lazily on the windowsill with one leg bent. Resting his hands on his knees carelessly, the young man's dark and deep eyes followed the faint hem of his skirt under the corridor, and the smile on his lips was extremely ironic.

After a while, Shen Huai closed his eyes and said with a wry smile: "Gu Mingxiu.... You really won't give you the slightest chance. ”

"Whether it's a previous life or this life....." he muttered in a low voice, the moment he opened his eyes, the trace of bitterness disappeared, his eyes were still sharp and indifferent, Shen Huai leaned back, his eyes were slightly sunken, "I really shouldn't give you the slightest chance to choose." ”

Shen Huai left the word "Ming" for Gu Mingxiu, asking whether Gu Mingxiu could understand his mind and whether he could understand his mind. He secretly named Gu Mingxiu for missing too much in her heart, and she also had a little unresolved knot, and it was hard to believe that she really liked him, so he gave her a chance to choose.

He deliberately didn't let everyone send Gu Mingxiu's news back, and deliberately didn't force himself to take back the opportunity to choose, just waited silently. waited for today, and waited for Gu Mingxiu's answer.

A simple sentence of "His Royal Highness King Xiao" can clearly put Gu Mingxiu's answer on the table. She had already given the answer the moment she entered, and she had already clearly seen her choice to him.

After a lifetime of distance, Shen Huai once again understood what regret was.

After all, he was a little selfish, and he didn't want Gu Mingxiu to hand her over to him without explanation, but he was still hoping that she would be able to trust him once. However, Gu Mingxiu drew everything out of the dividing line, separating her from him far behind that line.

Shen Huai will never be the one Gu Mingxiu will choose.

Her words were detached and cold, and her attitude was polite and strange.

all show that Gu Mingxiu's choice is related to that clear boundary.

It's just Shen Huai himself..... At that moment, I suddenly wanted to pretend to be confused, and I didn't want to give her this opportunity.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
